I did try taking it out but can’t find it now. When I do I’ll try the drop test.

I have just received the letter with my follow-up appointment following my MRI on Tueday - 22nd December 2021!!!. I'm not sure how to interpret this - nothing to worry about, I haven't got long to go or it's a typo. Email has been sent.

22 DEC is a Tuesday this year and a Wednesday next year. My son only goes once a year for his heart valve check. Obviously your test was OK.

I find that when I have any tests and the results are slow to arrive - everything is okay. If the results are not good they are quick to tell me.

I agree, it suggests they’re not unduly concerned.

My blood tests came back as ‘normal, and within acceptable parameters’ the good news being my cholesterol, which was around 5.9 a few years ago, but is now down to 4 - happy with that.
I also have a date for my echocardiogram, 12 February. At least mine is this year.

Thats a good start steve. Puts your mind to rest a bit. Thats fairly fast for your next test. Not too long to wait. .

You’d think they would say though if only to put your mind at rest.

For the same reason.

Diagnosis Tuesday, operated on the Sat same week.

Enveloped dropped through the letter box the other inviting me to send a sample for bowel cancer testing - as usual I thought what a lot of crap ( if you pardon the pun)......... in the car yesterday and listening to a radio program when a lady called in to say that that a couple of years ago she was perfectly healthy, but submitted a sample and was found to have bowel cancer which has now been successfully treated because it was detected early..... now I am a great believer in fate and so now that I have heard that story, of course I am going to have to take that test - now where did I put my marigolds ?

I get that envelope every couple of years. I think it continues like that until your seventy four, after that you have to ask for it. They have now changed the format for sending the sample - only one, not three - much easier to deal with!
